Where are the animals?

Animal Health & Safety Comes First! Animals have temperature guidelines based off their native habitats to assure healthy living. For this reason, animals may have access to indoor heating or cooling areas as needed. The animals can then make the choice to return to their outdoor exhibit at will.
